The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 283

Paige opened the safe and took out all the things inside.

Her mother's shares of the company and some books were inside the safe, as well as the property ownership certificate of the villa alongside other company items. D These were all things that were displayed as a distraction. Paige knew that and she searched the safe for a while longer but she did not find anything else.

She didn't give up and she continued to search. Finally, she found a string of keys and a business card under the compartment of a box.

There were two words on the business card, Lamont Saunders, and a phone number below it.

She had never heard of this name, but since her mother had put the key and business card in such a secret place, it must have been important.

Paige decided to look for him as she dialled his number.

A low male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hello, who is it?"

"My name is Paige Anderson, daughter of Natalie Garcia. Mr. Saunders, can we meet?"

"Are you Miss Garcia's daughter?" He asked in surprise.

He identified her mother as Miss Garcia. It was obvious that he knew her. Paige answered, "Yes, she is my mother."

At the other end of the phone, he pondered for a moment and said, "I am currently out of town, so I can't meet you for the time being. But I will return to B City in three days. I will see you then!"

When Paige was on the phone, Abbie had been watching her quietly. When she saw Paige hung up the phone, she asked, "Did he agree?"

"Yes, but he is not here now. He said that he would come back in three days."

Abbie frowned and said, "Paige, you don't know who this Lamont Saunders guy is. Are you sure you want to meet up?"

Paige nodded, "Abbie, in my memory, my mother didn't have friends or relatives. She told me that she had left something in the safe for me. I didn't find anything else other than this set of keys and this business card. I think they were put in there for a reason. I must meet him."

Abbie did not agree, "But you don't know what kind of person he is. I don't think it's good for you to see him rashly like this. Let's investigate him, shall we?"

Paige retorted, "How can we investigate him? Find a private detective?"

"The people who can be friends with your mother are either rich or noble. Maybe he's famous! Would you like me to go back and ask my brother?" Abbie suggested.

"Sure, you should go ask him," Paige agreed.

After they were done, Abbie went to find Aiden. She went straight to the president's office and opened

the door, but he was not there. Instead, Michael was sitting on the sofa.

Seeing Michael, she frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

Michael didn't care about how Abbie came off a little rude, "I came to find your brother to deal with something."

"If you show up here, it must be nothing good, troublemaker!" She muttered in a low voice.

Michael stood up from the sofa and walked to her, "What did you say?"

"Is there something wrong with your ears? You're a troublemaker!" Abbie glared at him.

"How bold of you to say that about me!" He reached out and grabbed her. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Let go of me!" She pushed him hard, but he did not let her go. He held her and said,

"Apologize!"

"For what?" She raised her eyebrows, "Are you not a troublemaker? You are the most shameless person I know who can talk his way out of anything. I can't believe a person like you can get to the status you have right now! "

"Abbie Cook! Shut up! If you continue yapping, I won't be so kind anymore," Michael was livid after getting scolded by her.

"What are you so loud for? I can hear you very well. Let me go! You're so dirty and disgusting! Michael,

you son of a b*tch, I hate seeing you. Listen, I know about your romantic affairs. Don't piss me off. If you do, I will tell my sister that you are hooking up with prostitutes abroad and let her break off her engagement with you!" She swore while forcibly shaking off his hand.

Michael was so angry, and he tightened his hold on her, "Who told you I was hooking up with prostitutes?"

"I saw it with my own eyes. I was behind you when you and that golden-haired woman went to the hotel. I saw everything clearly, you shameless b*stard!" She cursed angrily.

He laughed with anger, "Abbie, I have never touched other women, let alone hook up with them."

"Is that so? Are you saying that I saw a ghost? Or was that just some random son of a b*tch? Why did that b*stard look exactly like you?" She asked back.

How dare she called him a son of a b*tch!

He glared at her, "You're going too far! Apologize to me, or I'll punish you!"

"I won't apologize!" She wasn't scared of him at all.

"Are you going to apologize or not? Let me tell you Abbie, if you push my buttons too far, I can do anything!"

He said that and reached out his hand to hold her chin, forcing her to look up at him, "Look into my eye to say that you're sorry and you know you're wrong!"

She was forced to look into his eyes.

Originally, she was ready to swear at him, but when she made eye contact, she suddenly swallowed back her words.

The way that Michael stared at her was starting to hurt her head. She seemed to have seen his gaze somewhere. She began racking her brain.

In her mind, Michael's husky voice gently called her name, "Abbie, I love you!"

She was shocked.

Was she crazy?

She pushed him away with all her strength but he refused to let her go. When she was entangled with him, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Aiden appeared at the door. When he saw that they were embracing each other in a weird position, his face sank. He quickly came over and separated them. He asked Michael sternly, "What are you trying to do?"

"Bro, he's bullying me! He was hugging me just now, and he even wanted to kiss me!" Abbie immediately complained when she realized what was happening.

As soon as she finished her sentence, Aiden raised his hand to punch Michael.

Michael tried to dodge it, but Aiden's fist brushed past the corner of his mouth. It immediately started to

turn blue.

He said lividly, "Aiden, are you crazy? You believe her?"

After missing his first punch, he stopped and pointed to the door before he said, "Get out!"

Michael's gloomy eyes paused on Abbie's face for a while. Then he sneered while picking up his bag before he strode away.

Seeing Michael leave, she stretched out her hands to grab Aiden. She smiled sweetly and said, "Bro... I have something to discuss with you."

"What is it?" Aiden's face was gloomy as he let out a tired breath. He unbuttoned his suit and loosened his tie.

"I want to ask about a person named Lamont Saunders. Do you know this person?"
